Thinly myelinated Aδ-fiber and unmyelinated C-fiber cardiac sympathetic (spinal) sensory nerve fibers are activated during myocardial ischemia to transmit the sensation of angina pectoris. Although recent observations showed that myocardial ischemia increases the concentrations of opioid peptides and that the stimulation of peripheral opioid receptors inhibits chemically induced visceral and so...

The discovery of bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitors in the peripheral blood has promoted intensive studies on the potential of cell therapy for various human diseases. Accumulating evidence has suggested that implantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells effectively promotes neovascularization in ischemic tissues. It has also been reported that the implanted cells are incorporated not ...

Background . Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most severe stages disease vessels blood chronic , oriented CLI management on effort to anticipate doing amputation by pushing a infection happens wound and healing easier. One wrong possible intervention done increase peripheral circulation prevent occurance of consequence maintenance. Purpose Describe feet application nail care _ enhancement fi...

ischemic brain injury involves a complex sequence of excitetoxic and oxidative events. metformin is proposed as one of the potential candidates for returning the body to its basic homeostasis in ischemic situations. metformin can either protect or damage cells by activating amp-activated protein kinase (ampk) and its downstream factors so, it has a dual role in the cerebral ischemia context, bu...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the study is to describe the clinical course and treatment of idiopathic retinitis, vasculitis, aneurysms and neuroretinitis. The study utilized non-randomized, retrospective and interventional case series. The eight eyes of six patients were analysed. Testing included wide fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography and systemic evaluation. Treatment involv...

OBJECTIVE Ischemia causes reversible or irreversible cell or tissue damage and reperfusion can exaggerate cellular damage. Microvascular dysfunction is induced and causes enhanced fluid filtration in capillaries. At the acute phase of reperfusion more oxygen radicals are activated. Nesfatin-1 protects brain against oxidative damage and heart against ischemia/reperfusion damage. In our study, we...

Objective: The ankle-brachial index (ABI) as a simple test which can detect peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Therefore in this study we try to evaluate the diagnostic value of ABI for silent myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients and compare the results with myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) results. Materials and Methods: All 149 diabetic patients in this study were categorized according...

A 69-year-old man with diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and hypertension presented with 3 months of diffuse abdominal pain that worsened with meals, weight loss, and dysphagia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and computed tomography revealed findings consistent with chronic gastric ischemia secondary to atherosclerosis. Gastric ischemia eventually led to perforation. We discuss causes, symptom...

Angiogenesis and its regulation is a crucial physiological response to chronic tissue ischemia causing increased microvessel growth along with collateral arteriolar remodeling to restore blood flow to deprived tissues.1 Vascular occlusion, as seen in coronary and peripheral artery disease, often progresses to chronic tissue ischemia without effective vascular remodeling responses.2 Thus, therap...
